At three months pregnant, can I treat vaginitis?

Patient's question:

When my baby was three months old, I developed a fungal vaginal infection. The hospital prescribed Honghe Wash and Nifuratel tablets. After one week, I got my period, so I stopped taking the medication. During my period, there was no itching, but it started itching again after my period ended. What medicine do you recommend for quick relief that is safe for breastfeeding? Is chlorhexidine acetate wash effective?

Doctor's answer:

You are currently in the lactation period, and the use of medication is very limited, as it can also affect the baby. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to diet and hygiene, and using general Chinese herbal medicine washes for treatment is relatively better.
Suggestions:
1. Always maintain local cleanliness and hygiene, and avoid spicy, extremely cold, and irritating foods in your diet.
2. Use emodin wash to wipe, which has little impact on the baby.
3. Regular follow-up examinations.
Additionally, for patients with vaginitis during treatment, their dietary condition and care are also very important. Patients must pay close attention to their diet and eat more light foods to avoid unnecessary harm. It is hoped that the above answers can help you. Thank you.
